Basic rules
Shoot the ball into the hoop.
To shoot, left click or tap then pull back to charge.
While the ball is selected, pay attention to the arrow. This determines where the ball will go.
Move the arrow around to aim.
Release to shoot.
You can grab the ball midair to change its direction, but it will use up one of your chances.
Take account the terrain when shooting the ball.
In later levels, the terrain around the ball becomes more challenging to overcome.
Grabbing the ball in midair is a good way to have the ball go up tall hills and go over bumpy terrain.
Make sure the ball reaches the hoop while you still have an ample number of chances.
Chances
You start each level with 6 chances.
Chances represent the number of moves you make in the game.
In later levels, you’ll need to use up several chances just to get the ball within shooting distance of the basket.
Lose all your chances and you fail the level
